Fish and chip van hire in Acton Green, cooked to order
The queue at the hatch is part of the fun. People chat, the smell drifts across, and the food arrives hot. For milestone birthday parties and summer garden parties, we’ll put together a menu of pie and chips, gravy and sausage and chips and more.
London streets around Acton Green can be narrow and lined with parked cars, which makes off-street parking, such as a drive, a school playground or a car park, the easiest option. Send us a picture of the spot. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Acton Green: your questions answered
What about parking in Acton Green?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
Which station is closest to Acton Green?
Acton Green has its own station: South Acton station.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Acton Green.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
The process
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Around midsummer it stays light in Acton Green until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- We arrive early, set up and get the fryers hot.
- We fry to order and serve from the hatch at the agreed time.
- Afterwards, we clear up and head off.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Compared with a hog roast, a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies rather than one dish, which suits guests who don’t eat pork. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We’ll send you a quote.

Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
